Subway Etiquette for Suicidal Commuters?
Top thread this morning from Brooklynian Park Slope...
stopdoingthis Tue Apr 27, 10 9:46 pm EST
If you're considering offing yourself during my commute, please reconsider, and go upstairs and jump in front of a truck instead of jumping in front of the train. Thank you!
canyontothesky Tue Apr 27, 10 11:33 pm EST
this seems to be happening so frequently lately. I only moved to PS a year ago, though, so, is it always like this?
the0ther Wed Apr 28, 10 12:35 am EST
maybe you should move to japan where they send the bill to your family if your loved-ones jump in front of a train?
Hamilton Wed Apr 28, 10 6:32 am EST
That only applies for the ones they can't use as sushi.
I'm chagrined to admit, I kind of guffawed into my coffee cup. And who knew that Japan actually bills suicide charges to survivor's families?
But it does beg the question. Perhaps the F train could start offering platform counseling services to troubled commuters.
What do you think?

"A wonderful book"
It is a treat to listen to this book. David McCullough's voice is so soothing I keep hearing it even after I finshed the book.
"A compelling narrative"
Great narrative of the early 19th century America. Enjoyed listening. If the narrator 'Patrick Cullen' would slow down a bit it would be even more enjoyable.

I saw this on TV the other night and it was so weird I couldn't believe it – a Beatles tribute band combined with figure skating…I was lost for words
(HT Scott Cramer)
I saw this on TV the other night and it was so weird I couldn't believe it – a Beatles tribute band combined with figure skating…I was lost for words
(HT Scott Cramer)
Tonight I was reading a book to Charis, and one of the characters in the book said the word "snort". Apparently Charis thought the word "snort" was the funniest word in the history of mankind, because she kept repeating it to herself and laughing hysterically. This event, combined with the fact that today is my 29th birthday, has me feeling a bit nostalgic. So I decided to compile a list of twenty nine things that I miss from childhood. Here goes…
1. Saying one word over and over, and laughing harder each time I say it. For example: "fart".
2. Getting super amped up on Saturday morning to watch three hours of cartoons.
3. Watching Darkwing Duck, Chip 'N Dale Rescue Rangers, and Tale Spin every day after school.
4. Getting really into something for a very short period of time. Examples: Pogs, Star Wars trading cards.
5. Manipulating my parents into buying me an action figure when we went to the store.
6. Breaking that action figure when we got home from the store.
7. Backyard wiffleball.
8. Being coated in sweat and dirt after a long day of playing freeze tag and kick the can.
9. Going to sleep still coated in sweat and dirt.
10. Having a simple faith in the power of prayer. Like the time I prayed that God would allow me to fly.
11. Wearing sweatpants for days on end without one ounce of shame.
12. Watching movies with my dad and having dad try to cover up swear words by saying "BABABABABA" really loudly.
13. Watching movies with my dad and having dad accidentally put the bad parts in slow motion instead of fast forwarding them.
14. My special blanket that had the power to take away all fear and sorrow.
15. Bologna.
16. Being really excited to tell my friends that I had watched a movie rated "PG".
17. Getting a toy with a McDonald's meal. (Why don't they do this for adults?)
18. Playing games with my friends that involved hurting each other.
19. Thinking that I might be a professional basketball player someday.
20. Wearing short shorts and tube socks and not knowing any better.
21. Anticipating the newest release in the "Ernest Goes To…" movie series.
22. Riding my bike to Sheetz for the sole purpose of purchasing a 44oz Slurpee.
23. Getting a refill on my Slurpee.
24. Beating Super Mario Bros.
25. Getting excited about flying on an airplane.
26. Getting a free lollipop from the bank.
27. Drawing intricate designs on my arms and legs with a ballpoint pen.
28. Getting really excited about my first pair of name brand shoes.
29. Not worrying about making lists.
What do you miss from your childhood?
It is now officially cold season, and Jen and I and the girls have been getting slammed the last couple weeks. I'm always in search of the latest, greatest cold remedy.
So would you mind sharing your personal cold remedy? I don't care how crazy it is. I don't care if it involves sticking tube meats in your socks or rubbing lard all over your face. I'm willing to try just about anything.
What do you do to fight against a cold?
Generally I don't think it's a great idea to do spiritual things exceedingly fast or in high volumes. I'm a big fan of slow, deliberate meditation upon the word of God. I think it's important to pay close attention to preaching, and not to multi-task while listening to sermons.
But there are times when it's valuable to quickly read large chunks of the Bible, or read a spiritual book quickly, or listen to a large number of sermons.
But how can you listen to a sermon quickly? It's actually pretty easy. Follow the steps below:
STEP 1: Download and install the Quicktime audio/video player from Apple. You can download it here.
STEP 2: Download your favorite sermon. Make sure that you know where the file is being saved. For simplicity sake, I always download files to the desktop.
STEP 3: Right click (or control click for Mac users) on the downloaded sermon and click "Open With". Select Quicktime Player.
STEP 4: Once the sermon has opened in Quicktime, select the "Window" menu, and select "Show A/V Controls" (this may be a bit different in Windows).
STEP 5: In the bottom right hand of the A/V Control Window is a "Playback Speed" slider. Bump the speed from 1x to 2x. Adjust the speed as necessary.
There it is. Simple and awesome. It works for just about any audio file. The human brain can process words much faster than they can be said, and this allows you to listen to sermons at a speed that your brain can handle.
Now you can listen to twice as many sermons!
Last Tuesday night The Discovery Channel's reality show, Deadliest Catch, documented the passing of Phil Harris, captain of the Alaskan crab fishing boat, the Cornelia Marie.
He suffered a massive stroke while his crew was offloading his boat in January and died in early February at age 53 while still in the hospital.
With the consent of his family, the reality show kept their cameras rolling throughout his ordeal, right up till the end. There were a couple touching scenes with his sons, especially when he told them he loved them.
The Discovery Channel did a tasteful job though it seemed crass to me at first. But a couple days before the episode I read these verses:
It is better to go to the house of mourning than to go to the house of feasting, for this is the end of all mankind, and the living will lay it to heart.
Sorrow is better than laughter, for by sadness of face the heart is made glad.
The heart of the wise is in the house of mourning, but the heart of fools is in the house of mirth. (Ecclesiastes 7:2-4)
Initially these verses caught me off guard. Why is it better to mourn than feast? Who likes funerals or intensive care units? Why is sorrow better than laughter and how does sadness make the heart glad?
The answer is that we can grow wise by contemplating death – "the heart of the wise is in the house of mourning."
In our culture, we're shielded from death. We shove it to the backs of our minds. We'd rather party. But parties don't make us wise. Funerals are opportunities to see that death "is the end of all mankind" and we who are "living will take it to heart." Intensive care units can remind us of the life to come.
Seeing death should help us contemplate our own death, think about eternity and live wisely.
By "sadness of face the heart is made glad" when we put our hope in Jesus, not in this world.
I feel sad for Phil's family. But I'm glad they allowed the cameras to keep rolling. I'm glad they showed the hospital scenes with all the tubes and machines and his final conversations with his sons. I hope it helps me grow more wise. It reminded me that my own life is a vapor, and someday I'll be with the Lord.
I don't want to miss opportunities to glorify Christ, and to tell my wife, children and grandchildren I love them.

Advocates for poor wary of restoring food tax
SALT LAKE CITY — Food is one of Lou Anne Stevenson's biggest expenses.
The 56-year-old Salt Lake City woman lives on Social Security and other government assistance totaling about $1,020 monthly, about $300 of which goes for groceries.
"I'm not living extravagantly," said Stevenson, who is on a special diet due to hypoglycemia and other health issues.
Stevenson isn't sure how she would deal with a hike in the sales tax on food, a proposal currently being considered by the Utah Legislature.
"I have a hard enough time just trying to keep food on the table as it is," she said, adding that weather patterns and food shortages continue to drive prices up. "I don't know how we're going to survive, and they want to more than double the tax on food on top of it."
Raising the sales tax on food surfaces in the Legislature every few years. It typically pits advocacy groups for low-income Utahns against lawmakers, and lawmakers against each other. The Senate has been amenable the idea, while it has met resistance in the House.
The proposal this year has a twist that sets it apart from ones in the past: A tax credit and a tax refund to offset the tax hike.
Linda Hilton, Crossroads Urban Center outreach coordinator, had a succinct answer to raising the food tax: No.
"What was offered was 'Let's Make a Deal,' and we don't play 'Let's Make a Deal.' That's what makes this year different," Hilton said. "We aren't going to make a deal."
Utah is among seven states nationwide that tax groceries at a lower rate than other goods, while two states apply general sales tax rate to food. Five states tax food but offer credits or rebates to offset the tax. The remaining states exempt most or all food purchases from sales tax.
Sen. John Valentine, R-Orem, said he wants to see the state sales tax restored on food purchases to stabilize often-volatile tax collections without hurting the Utahns who most benefit from paying less at the grocery store.
"My whole goal is to try to bring some stability to the state of Utah and to give back to some of our lowest-income people a little more than they're getting now," Valentine said, promising any changes would be revenue neutral.
His initial draft boosts the state sales tax on food from 1.75 percent back to the same 4.7 percent state rate paid on other purchases. Then-Gov. Jon Huntsman Jr. was behind the reduction, made over 2006 and 2007.
The proposal would also provide an $80 annual refundable food tax credit to each member of a family earning less than $35,000 a year, or $40 each for families earning between $35,000 and $60,000.
In addition, it would allow families that qualify for the federal Earned Income Tax Credit to get a check for an amount equal to 5 percent of the federal credit from the state.
Valentine, a tax attorney, said the average Utahn spends $80 a year on food taxes. Under his proposal, a single mother with one child earning less than $35,000 would receive a total of $314 back — $154 more than they would likely pay in food taxes.
While there has long been talk of rolling back the sales tax cut, Valentine said this might be a good time to try again. More lawmakers, he suggested, may be regretting losing a reliable source of revenue after the economic downturn.
Plus, 2013 is not an election year.
"It's going to be easier to look at it because the political storms aren't nearly as intense as they would be right before an election," the former state Senate president said.
But House Speaker Becky Lockhart is dead set against tampering with the food tax and believes most House Republicans are, too.

Recognizing early symptoms of a heart attack can help save lives. Heart attack symptoms may occur hours or even weeks before the actual heart attack.
Early symptoms of a heart attack include:
Early heart attack care (EHAC) is a campaign intended to educate everyone about the early symptoms of a heart attack in order to prevent the heart attack from ever occurring. Preventing the heart attack prevents heart damage. EHAC is also a plea to the public to be responsible, not only for themselves, but for those around them who may experience early heart attack symptoms. This is a public education program that concentrates on the benefits of receiving early treatment and activating emergency medical services.

Vatican acting like 'dictators'
Post your comment
Comments on this article are now closed.
Reader comments
Get your facts straight. The Vatican has NOT said in a document that gay people are "intrinsically evil", but gay SEXUAL ACTS.The Catholic Church distinguishes carefully between gay people and gay sex (cf. http://www.vatican.va: Catechism of the Catholic Church, pars 2357-9).
Those comments are so ignorant.If there is a god, he or she made us this way and made the world this way. But we have minds, we have hearts and we have souls. We have responsibilty and we have a duty to help the weak minded understand that there is true power by accepting people, not by rejecting. Being gay isn't a choice. It is reality and how can anyone claim a whole group of people are immoral based on their sexual preference? This is like Hitler saying the Jews were bad people based on their religion or race. Please let us make a stand and set an example for future generations. We are all equal under god's eyes and the this church causes pain, and destruction. Amen.
Bernard wrote:"Get your facts straight. The Vatican has NOT said in a document that gay people are "intrinsically evil", but gay SEXUAL ACTS."Excuse ME, Bernard, but the current pope wrote, in the role of Grand Inquisitor under the previous pope, the homosexuals are "intrinsically disordered." I fail to see any difference between that statement and the the statement that gay PEOPLE are "intrinsically evil." The pope should think about what that means to his concept of God.

Rated 4.3 out of 5 by 6 reviewers.
Rated 4 out of 5 by modest buyer :) Good structure, not enough padding The bra is well-designed, all seams are flat, well-finished and don't rub on the skin. Sits well. My pet peeve is not having sufficient padding - I was specifically looking for a bra to hide my nipples and this was not the right one for my purpose. September 26, 2014

April 30 (Bloomberg) -- President Barack Obama speaks about legislation to raise the federal minimum wage to $10.10 an hour that was blocked by Republicans in the U.S. Senate today.
Obama, who called for the increase in his January State of the Union address, accused Republicans of pushing a "top-down" economic policy that benefits the most wealthy at the expense of lower- and middle-income Americans. (Source: Bloomberg)

Doctors at Johns Hopkins Hospital have removed a rare tumor that contained several fully grown teeth from a baby boy's brain.
Teeth (singular tooth) are small whitish structures found in the jaws (or mouths) of many vertebrates that are used to tear, scrape, and chew food. Some animals, particularly carnivores, also use teeth for hunting or defense. The roots of teeth are covered by gums. Teeth are not made of bone, but rather of tissues of varying density and hardness.
Teeth are among the most distinctive (and long-lasting) features of mammal species. Paleontologists use teeth to identify fossil species and determine their relationships. The shape of the animal's teeth are related to its diet. For example, plant matter is hard to digest, so herbivores have many molars for chewing. Carnivores, on the other hand, need canines to kill prey and to tear meat.
Mammals are diphyodont, meaning that they develop two sets of teeth. In humans, the first set (the "baby," "milk," "primary" or "deciduous" set) normally starts to appear at about six months of age, although some babies are born with one or more visible teeth, known as neonatal teeth. Normal tooth eruption at about six months is known as teething and can be painful.
Some animals develop only one set of teeth (monophyodont) while others develop many sets (polyphyodont). Sharks, for example, grow a new set of teeth every two weeks to replace worn teeth. Rodent incisors grow and wear away continually through gnawing, maintaining relatively constant length. Many rodents such as voles (but not mice) and guinea pigs, as well as rabbits, have continuously growing molars in addition to incisors.

The Substance of Faith
You can scroll the shelf using ← and → keys
You can scroll the shelf using ← and → keys
The Substance of Faith.com hosts the reflections, insights, and study of Joel Snider, Pastor of First Baptist Church, Rome Georgia.
Are you searching for information on the "the substance of faith?" More searches for that phrase bring readers to this site than any other. If that's why you came, here is a simple summary:
The phrase comes from the King James Version's translation of Hebrews 11:1 – "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." J. B. Phillips translation clarifies the idea: "Now faith means putting our full confidence in the things we hope for…"
Clarence Jordan has a famous sermon using the phrase "the substance of faith." . When Jordan's sermons were gathered and published, the editor took the title from that particular sermon.
Clarence always made this point: faith is a verb, not a noun. In fact, the Greek New Testament contains both a noun and a verb but, the verb is more common than the noun.
So here is the idea: If you hope for something, you live for it, even if you can't see the outcome. Living our convictions (faith in action – faith as a verb) makes our hope concrete. Hope is just an idea – it is simply a wish – until we give it genuine substance through our actions. Living for the convictions we cannot see is the substance of our faith. As Clarence Jordan said, "Now faith is the turning of dreams into deeds; it is betting your life on the unseen realities."
I wrote my dissertation on the preaching of Clarence Jordan and his theology still has a major impact on what I believe. Thus, I took The Substance of Faith as the name for this website. I hope that you will find concrete expressions of faith in my posts. My goal is to apply real faith for the real lives we live.

O, God, you know our rising up and our sitting down. You are acquainted with all our ways. We do not need to tell you that we fail daily, yet we acknowledge that each new days finds our commitments weakened and our will to do what is right has diminished during the night. We trust in your grace to sustain and forgive us even though we confess the same sin for the hundredth time. Forgive us still.
And may your grace take root in us in such a way that we are ready to forgive sins that have been commuted repeatedly against us. Even if family members take us for granted again in a way that pierces our hearts, even if co-workers or fellow students disrespect our abilities or our contributions again, may we forgive them as often as you forgive us.
We acknowledge before you now what price it cost you to forgive us so often, for we know how dearly our hearts pay to forgive the repeated sins of others. Change us. Change our hearts and our minds so that we no longer see forgiving others as out loss — but as our gain. Help us to see what you have meant forgiveness to be — freedom from past hurts, a path to a new day and a new relationship with others, an unexpected way to receive blessing beyond measure from your very hand.
Forgive us and we commit anew to forgive those who have sinned against us.
In Christ's name

Three trips with Lizardhead Cycling have taught me some valuable lessons. The first comes from Lizardhead's owner, John Humphries, pregame speech – the advice he gives to a group as they set out on a tour. "The greatest accomplishments," he says, "arise from overcoming adversity." According to John, the easiest days on a Lizardhead tour are rarely the most rewarding. He says that our favorite memories come from the days we rise above difficulties and trials.
He's right. My most memorable days include day two of the Redrocks trip – the day which John says is the hardest on any Lizardhead tour. For me, Redrocks II was the second time I ever rode more than a hundred miles in a day. Others may ride 100 miles once a week; I don't. Additionally, Redrocks II came eight months after prostate surgery (seven moths after being able to sit on a bike) and three weeks after a blood clot behind my left knee. I'm proud of that day.
Another favorite memory was getting back on the bike after a crash while descending Middlebury Gap in New Hampshire on day two of that vacation. Of the three people who crashed that day, I was the only one able to ride again that week. I missed day three of that trip, per doctor's orders, but I rolled out with the group on day four.
My most memorable day from this year's Willamette Valley tour was the last day, climbing McKenzie Pass. I hate to climb. My heart might as well have a governor on it; I can't beat much over 140/minute, which is a real handicap on hills. McKenzie Pass was a 22 mile climb. It's not near as steep as the New Hampshire Gaps, but it is uphill all the way and a challenge for me. There were no flat spots for the first 14 miles that I can recall. Others may find it easy, but for me it was a three hour slog at maximum heart rate. And I did it, finishing strong at the top. The big challenges produced the best memories.
John Humphries comments about adversity remind me of a similar statement by Clayton Christensen in his book, "How Will you Measure Your Life? "Self esteem," says Christensen, " comes from achieving something important when it's hard to do." Christensen makes this statement in the context of parenting: "By sheltering children from the problems that arise in life, we have inadvertently denied this generation the ability to develop processes and priorities it needs to succeed….As I look back on my own life, I recognize that some of the greatest gifts I received from my parents stemmed not from what they did for me -but rather from what they didn't do for me." [both quotes on p. 134]
As with many of my posts, the moral of the story is about parenting. Children need challenges. They need to solve hard problems. Yet, this generation of helicopter parents thinks they are doing their children a favor by rescuing them from adversity. Today's parents want to remove all obstacles from the paths of their sons and daughters. They cajole extra time for a school project instead of allowing a child to complete a difficult project in the time allotted. The allow children to watch while completing a science fair project for them, instead of requiring them to stay up late to finish it on their own. They do their children no favors.
The Apostle Paul says, "…suffering produces endurance, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope" (Romans 5:3-5). There are no shortcuts to character and hope. They are qualities only derived from overcoming challenges and adversity. A person can only overcome adversity by facing it. A person can only accomplish great things by attempting difficult things.
Check your own memory. What are some of your best memories of accomplishments? I imagine they include overcoming a hardship or trial. What adversity have you let your children handle by themselves? As much as you want to whiled them from pain, you cripple them by swooping in for the rescue. It may make you feel better about parenting, but it teaches children that they probably couldn't have done it on their own. It's not the path to character or self esteem.
We started the day with a shuttle to breakfast at the Rustic Skillet restaurant, with its dinosaur theme at several of the tables. There was only one server on duty, but she was very engaging and capable. She challenged my order of two English muffins and peanut butter, saying "That's not enough if you are climbing McKenzie Pass." I stuck to my order, preferring to eat constantly on the ride over too much on the stomach. After eating, we arrived back at the Belknap Springs Lodge where we brought luggage to the van and loaded our pockets with food for the morning, before heading out.
From the Lodge we rode a mile and a half to the road leading up the pass – with the summit 22 miles up from the intersection where we turned. The landscape was temperate rain forest at the bottom of the climb. For our last time in Oregon we cycled past ferns and moss-covered trees. Right on schedule, between 40 and 50 minutes out, faster riders began to pass us, but when we stopped for a break after the first hour, we counted 8 riders still behind us. The terrain turned more to a forest of Douglas Fir by the time Steve and Wayne (among the Texans) pulled along side and rode with us for three or four miles. A little over half way to the top, they left us and Tom joined us for much of the remainder of the climb. We stopped a couple of more times to eat and drink without the concentration or effort of the climbs which was at a steady 6% grade. The road was full of switch backs and "S" curves as we wound our way, ever upward.
Emily, our guide, had told us we would come upon a lava field, but when we did, we were not prepared for the startling change in scenery. We went from green forests to a wasteland of volcanic rock in just a short distance. Among the rocks the only life visible life consisted of the rare volunteer evergreens that had found a toehold of soil from which to sprout. Many of the trees were dead, looking like tall gray fingers pointing out of the rocks. We dropped briefly back into the tree line, then out again into an extension of the lava field. Off to our right, almost lost in the glare were two beautiful snow-peaked mountains. It was an amazing sight.
A couple more miles and we caught a glimpse of the van, ahead and above us, parked at the summit. As we approached Emily starting ringing the cowbell, as if we were racing for King of the Mountain points in the Tour de France. She made the summit experience fun.
After spending some time at the summit, taking in the view, we began the 18 mile descent into Sisters, Oregon. The first five miles included sharp turns, but with 12 miles to go, the road turned straight as an arrow and the grade decreased to about 3%, allowing for fun, fast riding toward the Sandwich Depot, were we ate and ate prior to the shuttle back to Portland.
Friday was my favorite day on the tour. The changes in scenery along with the continuous climb and fast descent provided much variety and fun.
Thursday was our most challenging, and my least favorite day. The challenge was not the length or the grade. It was traffic and route. Again, this was a day where we were forced to detour because of the fires. After shuttling back to Dexter Reservoir (except Ed Watters and Tony, who rode from Oak Ridge) we started off on some nice back roads that included a beautiful covered bridge.
After pedaling briefly on some good roads, we turned onto highway 126. With the exception of short periods were parallel roads allowed us off the highway, this was our route for the rest of the day. It was a steady, shallow uphill grade, often in the sun, with a narrow shoulder.
Before the break I picked up my second flat of the trip. Again, John was nearby and because we were near the morning break stop, he threw my bike in the car and we drove the short distance to where the others had stopped. After snacking while John repaired the tire, we set off again on highway 126. It was more of the same. Drivers were mostly courteous, but it was unnerving sharing the lane with semi's and logging trucks. After lunch I packed it in for the day and rode in the van to our destination at Belknap Springs.
The lodge at Belknap was the wonderful. The pool outside the lobby was fed by natural, hot springs. How good it was to relax in the pool after 6 days of riding.
The day did not offer much opportunity pictures or sight seeing. We all wish we could have seen the original route which was closed due to the fire.
Today is Saturday and the trip is all over, except for the flight home. We've been without usable internet service since we departed Tuesday morning; thus, I am backtracking to catch up on each days.
These two days were effected by the fires around Oak Ridge. Wednesday morning started with a breif wake-up climb and then settled down into many long flats, winding through Oregon farm land.
As a group, we had an abnormal number of flat tires. I had my first just before lunch. John Humphries was driving the support vehicle and showed up within 2 minutes after I pulled over.
The rest of the day was spent detouring to the Dexter Reservoir and then riding an "out and back" along the lake. The scenery was pretty, but this was our longest day and I was glad to be finished. We gathered by the reservoir and waited for each rider to come in before shuttling 23 miles to Oak Ridge where we stayed at the Cascade Motel. From the picture at the top of the post, yo can see they were waiting for us. John always picks first class places to stay wherever he can. Some legs of the ride, however, put the group in a small town with limited accommodations. Such was the case with the Cascade Motel: simple and clean – gracious owners, and limited amenities. We slept great and that is all that matters.
Above: Jeff and Tamara walk through the Douglas Fir of Silver Falls State Park
Every day we fall in love with Oregon for new reasons. Today was no different. This was our "bike and hike" day and the hike did not disappoint.
We started out of Silverton and immediately started the 18 mile climb to Silver Falls State Park. The first tenth of a mile was 11%, but then settled in to a steady 3-6% grade. Ed and I spent two and a half hours getting to the park. The last 5 miles tour owner, John Humphries, rode with us and we enjoyed John's infectious love of life and cycling. John has become a good friend and I was humbled to find that he often watches our worship services on the internet.
Once we arrived at the state park we set off on our hike, viewing waterfalls and incredible plant life.
Following 3 hours of hiking, we put our cycling shoes back on and rode back to Silverton, making a big loop for the day.
The views, the fields, the landscape, both on the way up and on the way down were spectacular. The ride was just challenging enough and the hike put a whole new perspective on our experience.
Things are a bit up in the air for tomorrow. We know where we will end up, but not where we start. The fires I mentioned in the post of Crater Lake are playing havoc with our route. Our guide, Steve, has spent the day scouting alternatives. We eat at 6:30 Am and then shuttle to wherever he has found for us to begin. The adventure continues.
Joe and Cheryl Burch arrive at today's lunch stop.
In the grocery store I've seen Oregon Blueberry's. In the hardware store I've seen Oregon grass seed. Until today I never realized the diversity of Oregon's agriculture industry.
Ed, Norris Broyles, and I started a few minutes early today, as slower riders are encouraged to do. As soon as we passed out of McMinnville, we began to ride through a fertile countryside – every square in of which – appeared to be under cultivation. The entire 48 miles today passed through fields of corn, fescue, and rye grass being grown for seed. Or acres of onions, orchards of apples and pears, or interesting trellises of hops. Several people stopped to pick blackberries on the side of the road. And, of course, there were many, many vineyards.
After arriving in Silverton, several of us tried to recount all the crops we had seen. Each one was able to remember an additional plants that others had forgotten.
On paper, today's distance did not seem long, but at the end of the day, with a headwind picking up, it was enough. The only climb of the day started with a testy little grade and turned into four miles of grinding out the pedal strokes.
Today's ride was one of my favorite days on a Lizardhead trip. The landscape was interesting, the weather was wonderful, and the view at lunch amazing. Now we look forward to tomorrow's "bike and hike."

Rare panel of 9 to hear discrimination case
Israeli Supreme Court 311.
(photo credit:REUTERS/FILE)
In what will likely be a historic decision, the High Court of Justice, with a
rare full nine-member panel, will hear on Monday a case that goes to the heart of
alleged attempts to block Arabs, homosexuals, disabled people and other groups
from living in particular communities.The case stems from petitions
filed by a number of human rights groups led by Adalah: The Legal Center For
Arab Minority Rights In Israel and the Association for Civil Rights in Israel
(ACRI) and aims to cancel the Acceptance Committee Law, which they claim has
improper discriminatory purposes.The petitioners do not allege that the
law explicitly prohibits a particular category of people from living in the
yishuvim covered by the law.In fact, on its face, the law has an
explicit prohibition against discrimination. However, the petitioners say that
it is designed and being implemented in a way that allows the communities to
discriminate in practice.The law, which was amended in March 2011 to
include some of the more controversial provisions, covers a massive number of
communities.For example, the law allows yishuvim to require "loyalty
oaths" and a commitment to observe Jewish holidays to prove one's Zionist
beliefs, caveats that are allegedly designed to dissuade or disqualify Arabs,
even if they have never taken any suspicious or criminal actions.The
applies to 434 communities in the Negev and Galilee regions, representing 42
percent of all of the yishuvim in Israel. It covers 90% of the state's communal
yishuvim and 57% of its agricultural yishuvim.Adalah said that the law
gives nearly complete discretion to the yishuvim regarding the rejection of
people who request to live in the yishuvim.It also claimed that the law,
even if it was not explicitly discriminatory, violates international law, since
it allegedly has a discriminatory purpose.In its response, the state
said that the law is a balancing act between preserving the unique character of
the special category of yishuvim it covers and defending others' rights to live
where they choose.The state added that the law in large respect is also
just confirming a system already in place, in which these special yishuvim
attract similar people, and does not create a new framework in which the
communities can discriminate.Moreover, the state said that
Attorney-General Yehuda Weinstein had recently nullified previous legislation
that addressed the issues that the new law handled.As such, the state
claimed that if the court nullified the law, there would be a complete legal
vacuum regarding the issues in dispute.The state emphasized that it
believed it was too early to judge the results of the law, which is only a few
years old.In a statement, ACRI said that the law allowed the acceptance
committees to evaluate families using vague tests like "suitability to social
life in the community" or "suitability to the community's socio-cultural
fabric."ACRI noted that after two years, "the state is still unable to
specify which communities are permitted to employ acceptance committees, and has
failed to established appeals committees as required by the
law."According to ACRI, the state has no data regarding the number of
applicants who were turned down.ACRI also said that of 128 appeals held
by the Israel Lands Authority under authority that precedes the acceptance
committee law, approximately 70% were granted, which it believed indicated that
many of the decisions are arbitrary and cannot survive appeal.Moreover,
most of the rejected applicants do not appeal their decisions, said
ACRI.In June 2011, the High Court, with a panel of three justices,
issued a conditional order against the constitutionality of the law, and ordered
the state to explain why the law should not be nullified.The panel also
said that, because of the case's constitutional importance, the final decision
on the issue would be made by the maximum and extremely unusual panel of nine
justices presided over by Supreme Court President Asher
D.Grunis.In a related ruling in September 2011, the High Court
ordered the Rakefet acceptance committee to allow an Arab couple to buy a lot in
the yishuv within 90 days, after the community initially refused their
request.The ruling was seen by Adalah and others as a reaffirmation that
the High Court believed the law was leading to discrimination in reality,
confirming their contentions that the law's purpose was
discriminatory.ACRI implied that the law had been passed to retrench
discriminatory practices, which it said had been rampant prior to the 2000
Ka'adan court decision that dealt with explicit discrimination.

Newcastle fans win the weekend with hilarious banner
Newcastle United's fans appear to be in much better form than their team, as their banner at the Swansea match would suggest.
Not only is the banner self-deprecating and a plea to fire manager Alan Pardew (the art on either side reads SackPardew.com underneath), it's also a brilliant dig at their Welsh opponents. High marks all around!

A word of thanks to all the parishioners who are actively involved in the various ministries in our parish which impact the lives of a lot of people, and who sacrificially and regularly make their financial contribution to our parish.
Who is a steward? He is somebody's manager. We are all stewards of God because, as Psalm 24 reminds us, God is the sole owner of everything we have: "The earth is Lord's and all that is in it." St. Peter reminds us of our duty of stewardship: "As each one has received a gift, use it to serve one another as good stewards of God's varied grace" (1Peter 4:10).
The New Testament refers to our stewardship to God 87 times. Paul claims that he is the steward of Christ's gospel. The good steward never forgets that God is the source of all he possesses and that all his possessions are given to him in trust, and he handles them accordingly.
There are three areas of stewardship: time, talents and treasure. Accepting the Biblical model of returning 10% of the "first fruits" to the Lord, we attempt to utilize at least 10% of our time for prayer, reflection, and works of mercy and ministry.
Our talents are to be used to glorify the Giver by using them wherever they are needed, in our parish or in our community. Our treasure or earning is offered as tithing for the maintenance of the parish property, worship, adult and youth formation, bible study classes, outreach activities in the community and evangelization programs.
Many years ago, in England, three men were pouring into a trough a mixture of water, sand, lime and other ingredients. A passer-by asked them what they were doing. The first said, "I am making mortar." The second: "I am laying bricks." But the third said, "I am building a cathedral." They were doing the same thing, but each looked at it differently. What a difference that made!
We can see something similar in the way people relate to their parish ~ why they give. One person says, "Oh! All they do down there is ask for money." The second person replies, "Well, you have to pay the bills." But the third person says, "I am building the Body of Christ." The three are doing the same thing, but what a difference in their attitudes!

Gibraltar Christmas 2012 Stamps
Santa Claus, Saint Nicholas, Father Christmas or Santa, is a figure with legendary, mythical, historical and folkloric origins who, in many western cultures, is said to bring gifts to the homes of the good children during the late evening and overnight hours of Christmas Eve, December 24. The modern figure was derived from the Dutch figure of Sinterklaas, which, in turn, may have part of its basis in hagiographical tales concerning the historical figure of gift giver Saint Nicholas. A nearly identical story is attributed by Greek and Byzantine folklore to Basil of Caesarea. Basil's feast day on January 1 is considered the time of exchanging gifts in Greece.

Second Impactby Perri Klass
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
Kendall is football town, and Jerry Downing is the high schools star quarterback, working to redeem himself after he nearly killed a girl in a drunk driving accident last year. Carla Jenson, lead reporter for the school newspapers sports section, has recruited Jerry to co-author a blog chronicling the season from each of their perspectives. When Jerrys best friend on the team takes a hit too hard and gets hurt, Carla wonders publicly if injury in the game comes at too high a cost in a players life—but not everyone in Kendall wants to hear it. . . .
David Klass and Perri Klasss Second Impact is an action-packed story that will resonate with readers who have been following recent news stories about football injuries.

Neil Armstrong ŌĆō A National Treasure
By LCDR Guy Snodgrass
The passing of Neil Armstrong, an American treasure and icon, seems lost in the steady drumbeat of electoral rhetoric and the 24-hour news cycle. How unfortunate, since he serves as a standard-bearer for what has been so good and right about America. The accomplishment that he represents, the once inconceivable act of landing a man on the moon, demonstrates that even during a period of international tension and national despair we can still rise to meet the greatest of challenges. In so doing, Armstrong personified two incredible ideals: A nationŌĆÖs ability to unite for the accomplishment of a grand achievement and an individual who remains selfless, putting service to oneŌĆÖs country before personal gains.
YesterdayŌĆÖs memorial service at the Washington National Cathedral was a fitting send off for one of our NationŌĆÖs finest, a naval aviator and true patriot who proudly served his country. The tone was set from the very start, with the playback of President KennedyŌĆÖs 1962 address at Rice University in which he committed the Nation to landing a man on the moon. President KennedyŌĆÖs speech recalled the monumental challenges that existed in going to the moon but, as he so famously put it, that we choose to do these things ŌĆ£not because they are easy, but because they are hard.ŌĆØ Technical hurdles were only one part of the problem, as the Nation would require individuals with a truly unique skill set to go safely to the moon and back. NASA Administrator Charles Bolden and Astronaut Gene Cernan both pointed out that while many were capable of landing on the moon, in retrospect only Armstrong could carry the hopes, dreams, and aspirations of a Nation on his shoulders and then, having accomplished such a lofty endeavor, could portray himself as simply an ambassador who represented the hard work and dedication of others.
During the service my thoughts drifted back to elementary school, when teachers would wheel TVs on roller carts into the cafeteria so that students could watch the space shuttle launch. IŌĆÖll never forget the palpable silence in the room as everyone collectively held their breath when the last few seconds of the countdown started, only to be broken by the thunderous applause of hundreds of children clapping and cheering with a successful ignition of the booster rockets. These moments resonated around the world. A friend and fellow aviator who attended the service, but who grew up Asia, recounted how his school in Taiwan played a tape of Neil ArmstrongŌĆÖs first footsteps on the moon as an example of a historic achievement for the world. These were the events that assured so many of us that great achievements were possible. He, like I, learned to dream just a little bit bigger because of Neil Armstrong.
In a time of self-promotion, when our NationŌĆÖs youth look to rock stars and celebrities for role models, we should not pass up this opportunity to champion an American Hero who always declined to champion himself.

Neighbors: Wilma Davidson
Date: February 20, 2013
by: Katie Hendrick | Community Editor
With two advanced degrees, her own consulting firm (Davidson & Associates), numerous articles in The New York Times, and three published books ("Most Likely to Succeed at Work," "Business Writing: What Works, What Won't" and "Writing a Winning College Application Essay"), Wilma Davidson's career has had many high points.
The Grand Bay resident, a professor at the University of South Florida Sarasota-Manatee campus, added another Friday, Feb. 15, when she hosted her favorite writer, Wally Lamb, the guest speaker at a school presentation. She discovered she has much in common with the Oprah Book Club: Both hail from Connecticut; consider teaching their true raison d'être; and find writing an excruciating practice with a satisfying outcome.
ON TEACHING. I've always loved it. I started as a swim instructor. Later, I taught junior high English, then high school English, then business communication for college students, grad students and leaders in Fortune 500 companies, government agencies and professional organizations. I'm hooked on the psychological gratification that comes from helping someone learn.
ON WRITING. The writing process is chaos. It can be stressful for new and veteran writers alike. But, the more you do it, the more faith you have that the story will find its way.
ON SUCCESS. Wally Lamb voiced my fear: "I'm an imposter." I have a tendency to think, "I'm not really good at this … Eventually people are going to figure me out."

Most braises start by browning the meat. Not this one. The cooked meat is sliced, floured, and seared at the end, which lends a pro touch to this dish.
Servings: 8
- 5 pounds boneless beef chuck roast
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- ¼ cup olive oil

- ½ cup red wine vinegar

PREPARATIONView Step-by-Step Directions
Preheat oven to 325°. Tie roast with kitchen twine at 1" intervals; season with salt and pepper.
Heat oil in a large ovenproof pot over medium-high heat. Cook onions, stirring occasionally, until soft, 10–15 minutes. Add wine, vinegar, and sugar. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer until reduced by half, 10–12 minutes. Add garlic and broth and return to a simmer; add roast and thyme. Cover and braise in oven, turning roast occasionally, until roast is tender, 2½–3 hours.
Transfer roast to a large baking dish and strain braising liquid over. Cover and chill onions. Cover and chill roast at least 12 hours.
DO AHEAD: Roast can be braised 2 days ahead. Keep chilled.
Combine onion and vinegar in a medium bowl. Let sit 30 minutes; drain. Add chile, basil, chives, parsley, and lemon zest and toss; season with salt and pepper.
Scrape fat from beef; discard. Transfer beef to a cutting board. Bring solidified braising liquid to a boil in a large saucepan. Reduce heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, until reduced to 2 cups, 25–30 minutes. Add vinegar and braised onions; season sauce with salt and pepper.
Place flour in a shallow bowl. Remove twine from roast and slice into eight 1–1½" pieces; season with salt and pepper. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Working in batches, dredge meat in flour and cook until browned and crisp, about 4 minutes per side. Arrange on a platter and drizzle with sauce; top with gremolata.
